    R.I.P. Angel's Share and Village Yokocho! My two favorite places close AFTER getting through Covid 19. I'm guessing rent hikes to catch up? Both iconic East Village spots are gone after decades in the neighborhood. I live in Queens, no where near, but these were home for me!

      It truly is a shame that they closed down, especially after Covid just ended. Would you mind sharing what your staple drinks there were?

      Fuck really I wanted to try it out. I wish I would've gotten into cocktails years ago so I could've gone to so many bars that didn't make it through the mandates

    This is art. It’s incredible how something as simple as watching a bartender make a cocktail can turn into an experience decorated gracefully by the attention to detail. This was awesome.

    That shiitake infused old fashioned that they served a couple of years ago was the best thing since sliced bread!

      I see you are a man of exceptional taste. We respect that. :) We'd recommend that you try the Milestones, Smoke in Your Eyes and the Flirtibirdi next time.

      It's a real shame they had to close down after many years of providing excellent service. It will be deeply missed 💔

      Then you must have visited a lot of highly acclaimed bars, since this is not a normal thing we've encountered so far.
      We're curious, what was your favorite bar you've visited so far?

    All I remember of my visit to this bar was the terrible service. I don’t remember the amazing quality of the drinks that this video portrays. I wish the service was better. If that was the case, I would’ve enjoyed the drinks a lot more.
    They have VERY strict rules at this bar. And they WILL yell at you if you break their rules. I don’t think the experience was all that ceremonial because our friends and I got yelled at for whispering in an empty bar. We were the only a ones there that night.

    Right when I heard "No Martini" after 2 years I knew that the Japanese were full of bullshit!
